Comment: Well first off I have lived in Woodleaf NC most of my childhood and now i live in Salisbury NC but I did goto South Davie Jr High my 7th grade year and i made many friends from the cooleemee and mocksville area, I myself remember the bull whole in my teenage years and yes it was a place to relax and granted there was people partying at times smoking weed and drinking etc but you it dont bother me the bull whole is a place to relax and as long as the ones partying dont bother me i dont care how much they smoke or drink I have been back to the bull whole recently and i like what they have done on the rowan co side making the park and just FYI bull whole is on both the rowan and davie co side, it is just easier to access the bull whole and nicer on the rowan co side,and as for cooleemee cops yes they write alot of tickets and its pretty messed up that the chief of police house used to be or still is above the cooleemee pool i believe he might be a petifile plus the ABC store is in the same building as the city police makes alot of scense when Davie Co is a dry county and the only stores in cooleemee that sale beer is Roger Spillmans go figure i guess the old saying is right money talks bullsh*t walks might as well call cooleemee Spillmanville lol

Comment: I was just reading the comment about the deputy ! It almost made me laugh except for the fact that I live around cooleemee and I would hate to think that the deputy was working in my area ! I would almost bet that he is one of those that just cant do anything else except "HIDE" behind the law> "BUT" just remember deputy ! I also carry a weapon and mine has "16" bullets in it ! SO dont get to anxious to pull your unless you are ready to use it !!!!!!

Comment: Firstly, the Bull Hole is not in Cooleemee, it''s across the Yadkin River Bridge in Rowan county. Yes, there have been some rough folks from Cooleemee, and yes, there isn''t much there anymore. Good thing - keeps the Yankees away; hard to do that much anymore.

As for the deputy, if he is real - Cooleemee''s PD is known for harassing certain folks they deem to be a "problem." Having been formerly involved in law enforcement myself, their behavior sometimes borders on harassment. They do a decent job other than that.

Since this is a hippie site, I can just tell you that I''ve lived in this area for a long time, and I definitely would NOT consider it a hippie haven.

Comment: Deputy must really be overflowing with hate and anger. You would have to be completely filled with anger to go so far over the top as to search hippie websites in order to find someone to threaten.

Its ok Deputy, with all of them bullets, I reckon ya got to find somethin'' to shoot.

Comment: Colleemee has always had the reputation of producing some of the roughest indivduals in the local area. My father and uncles came from the a community once known as Piney Ridge now Pine Ridge rd. As children they agressivly protected their "turf" from the boys in cooleemee by beating the snot out of the ones that crossed the creek bridge (which is no longer there). I grew up in Cooleemee, my family tree is deeply rooted there. I am a direct and proud product of this environment. Now that I am Deputy of the Davie Co. Sheriff''s office, I agressivly guard my "TURF" from any of the Dope Dealing, Drug using Crack heads that choose to cross the yadkin river bridge. Or try to set up shop in my HOME. This includes POT SMOKING HIPPIES. I''ll let cooleemee PD hand out the tickets. I''ll work on you! I have watched drugs drag my community down further than the mill closing ever did. I aint no mayberry pacifist cop. I keep 14 bullets in my gun and Ill agressivly put my hands on you. Im gonna do my job, and if you give me or the men on my shift (3rd) a reason, we''ll arrest you. On top of that you may develope some nasty bumps and bruises on the way. Their is alot of dope here and I may be fighting a loosing battle. So please feel free to come here and smoke it up. Just remember I have no remorse or pitty and if I catch you...Well, I''m gonna do my job...Good luck, POT HEADS

Comment: Cooleemee is nothing but a dead mill town, granted the "Bull Hole" which I seem to remember has been semi operational to the public over the years. I''m sure there is plenty of pot smoking there, the cops are so damn busy handing out traffic violations there''s no time left for anything else. Cooleemee is like many southern towns, very little in the way of progression, people just don''t give a damn about their condition... which reminds me that it''s also fairly trashy i.e. litter. Regardless if visiting Cooleemee make the trip even more excitable by watching the film "Gummo" first.
Cooleemee is not all that bad, I mean, the hardware store (there is only one) is pretty good.
